itnenaer,  it is funny that you ask.  I just recieved my first bag of it tonight.  My buddy who is a cook got it for me through work.  It cost me $30 for the 50# bag.  My only reason for getting the 50# bag is that it is a lot cheaper than the 5# bags of KA bread flour in stores right now which around here are running $5.  The two flours are identical,  as confirmed again this week by a phone call to KA.  Similarly the sir galahad is thier all purpose.  So I as many others,  have used this flour before.  The flour from KA I would most like to get my hands on from them is the type 65.  It looks ideal for long fermentations and flavor development.  For now I have no way to get it without my buddy ordering 50 50# bags.  -marc
